How about an isolation pad (I think Auralex makes one), to isolate the
sub(s) from the floor. Some bass traps might also help. And turn it down.
To enjoy loud music OR loud home-theater in an apartment setting might be
un-realistic (with rare exceptions) - even in NYC.

I have recently bought a nice theater system. The problem is I live in
a NYC apartment, and I'm receiving mad complaints from my neighbours
about the powerful bass. I'm sure there are people who have similar
problem. How do you effectively reduce noise/bass in an apartment? Any
success stories? Ideas? Suggestions? Theory? Please help!!! Or else
I'll have to give up my system. Please don't....
